Social Distancing - Week 4

Coffee. I was missing Starbucks bad. 
We road-tripped and found a location that was open!! 

Part of our Library assignments is watching a celebrity read them a story. 
Oprah it is!! 

Math is much easier when you have a gigantic pencil.

Addy had to do an animal report. She chose the Koala, which made this koala loving Mama super happy!! Of course we added real photos of our koala encounter in China. 

We enjoyed a dinner from the zoo!! The zoo is having dinners on Thursday night that you can pick up curbside. It was so yummy and we were able to support our zoo!! 

We've played 9 million games of Uno. 

My Mothers Day present came early! 

A new plate for my wall!

Addy came out of the shower with tiny hands! 
She freaked me out at first!! 

My new socks 

and new shoes...I must stop shopping...

We enjoyed the weather this weekend and got out of the house!! 
We had a mad game of soccer. 
We laughed and laughed!  


Another organization project done. I was dying to do this to my spices. We moved it from the cupboard to a drawer. I may or may not have matching spice jars on order. 

Ava Kate found a sleep mask and I thought she was ridiculously adorable. 

We spent today at Maumee Bay for the afternoon to enjoy the weather! 
It was a spur of the moment so none of us with the exception of John, had on proper shoes. 








Hope everyone is staying safe!!! 
We miss our friends and family!

Easter 2019

Our Easter was super low key due to the quarantine and social distancing. 
We kicked off festivities on Saturday night coloring Easter eggs. 
Ava lasted about 2 eggs and then she was done. It's sad, but my girl is outgrowing kid stuff. 




While we were coloring eggs and cleaning up the kitchen, the doorbell rang! 
We had goodies waiting for us! 
Candy for the girls and shots for the parents! 

Carrots for the bunny and baskets for the girls awaited them the next morning! 

8am wakeup call was awesome! 

The girls played with their goodies and we were off to JoJo's. 
JoJo bought Ava sushi so we was super excited!


JoJo and Nana set up an amazing egg hunt for the girls!! 
They had so much fun! 




Even a small injury didn't ruin the fun!


Lots of yummy food and hanging in trees ended the day. 




Hope everyone had a great day!

Social Distancing - Week 3

We have successfully ended Week 3 of Social Distancing. 
It was definitely more busy as the school has officially turned to Distant Learning, which means we have more interaction with teachers and Zoom calls. 
We managed it well but our Special Instruction isn't happening daily but we are still squeezing it in. 
We made Puppy Chow!

Mommy is definitely shopping online more so we are having lots of fun boxes to play with! 

We made salt dough ornaments. They were super cute!!
We painted them outside and enjoyed the weather. 




We finished them and I decided to leave the outside to dry. 
I mean, why would I check the weather?? 
Ugh, I woke up to torrential downpour and winds! 
I ran outside to grab what I could. 
Unfortunately, many were ruined and broken but I was able to salvage a few. 
I was so bummed because Addy made this amazing American Flag and it broke in pieces. 
It was so perfect. We'll have to make them again sometime! 

My new wine glass. 
It's 2:00 Somewhere and Wine with DeWine! 

I woke up one morning to a very subtle hint from the girls. I know it's hard to see but every single one of these notes says Pancakes. 

One more hint on my desk....

So I obliged...

Addy had a conference call with her class. 
It was nothing but chaos. All of the kids were just talking and talking over each other and you could barely hear her teacher. Haha!!

She just kept looking at me and saying "Now what do I do?" Hahahaha!!

I had to go to the grocery. I can't believe this world now. 
I was so stressed out. 

I ran into Aunt Tammy at the store!

We did get El Camino carryout with margaritas!! 
It wasn't the same as the patio but it was good...

Ava made chocolate chip cookies!! They were so good. She did a great job! 

John and I decided to tackle a puzzle. It took us about 2 days but we had mad success! 






Saturday night we decided to bust out for a little bit. 
We went to the liquor store (ha!) where we found The Beirut Food Truck. 
While John was in the store, Ava and I smashed on some hummus and veggies. 



We made it to Starbucks, which was thrilling!! 
Addy had a gift card so she was so excited!!



We miss out friends. So we did a drive by visit while following all of the rules. 
It was a perfect end to the day!
